A Thankful Peek at our Week


HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
The Native Americans and Pilgrims enjoyed their Thanksgiving feast together! 
They shared "friendship soup" and popcorn around the tables.



We made Native American vests and decorated them with symbols. 
We made headbands and decorated them with patterns and feathers.   




We practiced drawing Native American symbols together. 





Students enjoyed using markers to create Native American symbol drawings. 




We worked on graphing a variety of Thanksgiving pictures as we rotated around the classroom to count and graph. 




Students have been working hard to explore numbers during calendar time each day.  On our 66th day of school, we learned that the Pilgrims were on the Mayflower for 66 days!  What a cool coincident!  




We graphed our favorite Thanksgiving food.  Turkey was the most favorite and peas were the least favorite.  (I still love them even if no one else in my class does!) 









Students practiced mixing and fixing sight words and writing them on whiteboards quickly. Popcorn words are beginning to pop up everywhere we look in our classroom!




Students did a beautiful job creating these baskets of apples with Mrs. Janney in art class! 




We made Thanksgiving bracelets by reading a book that told us the story of Thanksgiving.  We added different color beads for different parts of the story. 




Students dressed up as Pilgrims and Native Americans and enjoyed a Thanksgiving Feast along the other Kindergarten class.




We made the "Friendship Soup" together as we talked about how the Native Americans taught the Pilgrims how to live off the land. 




These thankful kindergarteners would like to wish you a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
